I see poverty as the inability to provide what you need. So when people assume that poverty is when you don't have money I don't agree. Now what if you have all you need and you don't require money to buy anything, are you poor? Some people live in communities where everyone lives agrarian life. They have all they need because everything they need to survive is available. Food is on the farm, water available and everybody is happy. Although it was hard during the Covid-19 lockdown many people lived without money. I have also seen many people leaving cities and moving to rural areas to live a natural life.
In summary when you have everything you need to survive and you don't need money, are you poor?
I completely agree with you that poverty cannot be solely defined by the lack of money. It is more about inability to meet one's basic needs which can vary depending on the circumstances. As you mentioned some people who live in agrarian communities may not need money to survive because they have everything that they need available to them. To be able to survive everyone should work and earn money to be able to sustain their financial needs. I know that everyone will do any job just to survive poverty.
